The land of the Thai. This was always going to be interesting. Every traveler comes here. Most leave saying "I wish I could have seen it twenty years ago." It's a testament to what traveling Thailand must have been like that so many still come in hopes of catching a glimpse of its former glory. No other country or region of the world can hold a candle to Thailand's backpacker legend. Here you... Read Full Entry

Exodus

Lisa Sciambra Andrew Steyn Two New Yorkers (one native, one South African) who decided to put our ¨normal¨ lives on hold for about a year and see the world. Without much of an agenda, we quit our jobs, gave up our apartment, and left behind all but what we could fit into two backpacks in hopes of expanding our minds, broadening our horizons, and possibly creating a new sense of normal for ourselves.

Thai Rockers

Koh Phi Phi is home to a rather good hard rock band. After a couple of buckets my high school band would sound good!

Two really cool guys

more bucket magic

Australia day

more of the band and a bunch of less than sober Aussies

Our Pool

Our little place in Koh Phi Phi had a nice pool, with a nicer little pool bar. A good way to beat the heat

Lee Relaxing

Catching some rays by the pool

Around our place

It really was a pretty serene place, except for the guests screaming in the pool till 3am

Our Place

The view from our little porch

Koh phi phi

Koh Phi Phi

Scenes from the bay

Koh Phi Phi

"imagine this place twenty years ago :) "

Bangkok Commute

One of the many boats moving people around the ferry. Jump on and off quickly, they stop for less time than the subways back home

My favourite tourist sign

Double click on the picture and read the bulleted points. It's a sign for a local snake park show. The best part is the "ETC", as if all of the above is normal!

A ferry station

Thank God for the numbers. It's a completely foreign language.

Bangkok

The new and the old melt together here. there are hundreds of years between some neighboring buildings

Bangkok Street Food

There is more to the street food than Pad Thai and Tom Yam. These garlic shrimp were awesome...and cheap

Street Hawker

Lee at the hawker stand

Chinatown

As in all the big cites in South East Asia, and in the world for that matter, you'll find a good Chinatown and all that goes with it.

Tuk Tuk

Scared for our lives and lungs traveling in a tuk tuk in Bangkok.

Tuk Tuk

from the back seat...

Bangkok

A city home to so many fantastic temples

Bangkok

Buddha is much revered, and his teachings are a part of daily life for Thais, probably why they are such awesome people

Thanks for the letter
I truly hope that the High Commissioner of Beach Fashion would read that and pass the law immediately to apply to ALL EU citizens!
